“Dynamics of Emigration is an excellent volume that consolidates an emerging European historiography that is probably unfamiliar to many interested readers in the English language. The contributions address the problem from an admirable range of questions: more traditional intellectual history, the “persona” adopted by exiles in their adopted countries, their contributions to the intellectual situations there, the question of whether they became integrated in their new intellectual environments, the question of gender for exiles, and more.” Benjamin Tromly, University of Puget Sound

As a pioneering volume to consider the impact of exile on historical scholarship in the twentieth century in a systematic and global way, looking at Europe, North America, South America and Asia, Dynamics of Emigration asks about epistemic repercussions on the experience of exile and exiles. Analyzing both the impact that exile scholars had on their host societies and on the societies they had to leave, the volume investigates exiles’ pathways to integration into new host societies and the many difficulties they face establishing themselves in new surroundings. Focusing on the age of extremes and the realms of exile from fascist and right-wing dictatorships as well as communist regimes, the contributions look at the reasons scholars have for going into exile while providing side-by-side examination of the support organizations and paths for success involved with living in exile.
